I do this as well with projects. It works well if you only have to deploy to a couple of databases. If you have many databases (>3) then I find the migrations approach described by Grant works very well. On Mon, Nov 2, 2015 at 3:15 PM, David Burstin wrote: > We use SQL Server projects for patchi

We use SQL Server projects for patching, version controlled with git. For schema changes, we run a compare on the project and the dev database (assuming that is where the schema changes are) and create an upgrade script from that. For actual data changes to be applied, we create separate scripts

Hi all, Almost every system I have developed has been against a SQL Server database, and every environment has needed to be patched as greenfields projects introduce new changes. The reality is that I have found providing patch scripts for sql server quite problematic and have never been very hap

I'd approach each requirement separately. For VOIP: To use existing phones get a PAP2T for $30. Check with your VOIP provider it is compatible - can be a bastard to get going with UDP/STUN/etc. I've disconnected our VOIP service because with all these unlimited mobile plans now it doesn't make sen
